This cross-sectional study included women aged 45 years and older. Data were collected through an interview using a structured questionnaire; the following parameters were also measured: height, weight, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure (BP), handgrip strength, and 10 m gait speed. This study found that the majority of women adopted one or more healthy behaviors to prevent NCDs, while few women practiced comprehensive behaviors. Age, satisfaction with house income, living alone, social support, social participation, and household decision making were the determinant factors for behaviors toward NCDs prevention. A high prevalence of underweight (26.4%), overweight (31.9%), obesity (5.6%), high systolic blood pressure (SBP) (62.5%), and low muscle strength (54.2%) were frequently observed. Eating well-balanced meals, avoiding fatty foods, and undergoing blood cholesterol testing had significant correlations with physical health status. It is concluded that the activities at Posyandu Lansia (health village posts for older adults) are necessary to help women with unhealthy eating behaviors and lower physical activity and unawareness of health checkups to maintain focus and to develop a more practical approach to NCDs prevention.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph17072332","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,31]],"date-time":"2020-03-31T11:36:42Z","timestamp":1585654602000},"page":"2332","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Behaviors toward Noncommunicable Diseases Prevention and Their Relationship with Physical Health Status among Community-dwelling, Middle-aged and Older Women in Indonesia"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6904-3162","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Masako","family":"Yamada","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Health sciences, Kobe University, Kobe 654-0142, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elsi Dwi","family":"Hapsari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Maternity Nursing, Faculty of Medicine, Public Health, and Nursing, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta 55281, Indonesia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hiroya","family":"Matsuo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Health sciences, Kobe University, Kobe 654-0142, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2019, September 24).
